Ships in the Night: Bayfront Retreat, Sunrise Views & Kayaks

Wake up to sunrise over the Delaware Bay at Ships in the Night, a renovated waterfront home at Pickering Beach. Enjoy morning coffee with wide-open water views, quiet shoreline walks, and time together in a peaceful coastal setting.

The home sleeps up to six guests in two bedrooms: one with a queen bed and one with two twin-size bunk beds, providing four twin sleeping spots. Two bathrooms, a full kitchen, a dining area, and comfortable living space make it easy to settle in. Large windows bring the bay views indoors.

Cook in the kitchen or on the private gas grill, gather on the waterfront deck, and enjoy the outdoor seating and gas fire table. Kayaks are included for guests who want to explore the bay when conditions allow. Fishing, crabbing, and birdwatching add to the coastal experience.

Amenities include Wi-Fi, air conditioning and heating, a TV and sound system, washer and dryer, bed linens, free on-site parking, and self check-in with a smart lock. The kitchen includes a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, cookware, and dishes.

Ships in the Night is a relaxing base for couples and families who enjoy nature and a quieter pace, with Dover attractions within driving distance. Pickering Beach is a natural bay shoreline; conditions change with the tides and weather, and insects can be present.

Please note: exterior security cameras are located at the front door and at the back facing the sand dune.
